Bruins vs Hurricanes Prediction

The Hurricanes are going to get the benefit of the doubt because they’re the better team on paper and are a consistent team that produces results regardless of where the game is played. However, the Burins have caught fire over the last few weeks and play their best hockey on their home ice, where 8 of their 12 wins have come. The Bruins are stacking underdog wins up all of a sudden and have become the most profitable team in the sport. Until the hot hand turns cold, I have to side with the Bruins at these prices. Give me the home dog.
